DICEUncased chips [14]. | |
DIE BONDINGProcess of mounting a chip to a package [14]. | |
DIELECTRICAn insulator; a term applied to the insulating material between the plates of a capacitor [2]. | |
DIELECTRIC CONSTANTThe ratio of a given dielectric to the dielectric value of air [2] [11]. | |
DIELECTRIC FIELDThe space between and around charged bodies in which their influence is felt. Also called ELECTRIC FIELD OF FORCE or an ELECTROSTATIC FIELD [1]. | |
DIELECTRIC HEATINGThe heating of an insulating material by a high-frequency electric field [10]. | |
DIELECTRIC HYSTERESIS LOSSPower loss of a capacitor because of the changes in orientation of electron orbits in the dielectric; the changes in orientation are caused by rapid reversal in polarity of line voltage. The higher the frequency, the greater the loss [2]. | |
DIELECTRIC LEAKAGEPower loss of a capacitor because of the leakage of current through the dielectric. Also relates to leakage resistance; the higher the leakage resistance, the lower the dielectric leakage [2]. | |
DIELECTRIC LOSSESThe losses resulting from the heating effect on the dielectric material between conductors [10] [11]. | |
DIELECTRIC STRENGTHThe ability of an insulator to withstand a potential difference without breaking down (usually expressed in terms of voltage) [4]. | |
